Sitting correctly and safely
Adjusting the seat position
Assuming an incorrect sitting position in the vehicle can increase the risk of severe or fatal injuries during a sudden driving or braking
manoeuvre, in the event of a collision or accident, or if the airbags are triggered.
All vehicle occupants must assume a correct sitting position before setting off and maintain this position throughout the trip. This also applies
to the fastening of seat belts.
The number of vehicle occupants must never exceed the number of seats with seat belts in the vehicle.
Always secure children in the vehicle in an authorised restraint system which is suitable for their height and weight  → Airbag system   ,
 → Child seats   .
Always keep your feet in the footwell while the vehicle is in motion. Never place your feet on the seat or dash panel, for example, and never
ride with your feet out the window. When you are sat like this, the airbag and seat belt cannot provide optimal protection and could actually
increase the risk of injury during an accident.

While folding the seat backrest forwards, always ensure that there are no people, animals or objects in its path.
When folding forwards and backwards, keep all hands, fingers, feet and other body parts away from the seat hinges and seat release

When being folded back, the seat backrest must be securely locked in the upright position. If the seat backrest is not locked properly it could
move suddenly and cause severe injuries.
